Today is the beginning of the worst part of hurricane season known as Cape Verde season. It is named after the Cape Verde islands off the coast of Africa. The sand storms come off the Sahara cross the Cape Verde Islands and then move across the Atlantic. While crossing the Atlantic they build circulation and then when they hit the warm waters of the Caribbean they become monsters. This means heightened awareness of what is going on weather wise for the next 6-8 weeks. With Katie being 28 weeks this Thursday we already have a plan in place to send her off island if a big storm is coming. So far the season has been quiet in the our neck of the woods with all the storms turning north and into the Atlantic before entering the Caribbean. Lets hope it stays that way.
